- Chinese export data beats forecasts- Eyes on Greece and Spain- Hargreaves Lansdown extends gains.Better-than-expected Chinese export data and hopes for the Eurozone were lifting stocks on Monday morning, with the Footsie up 0.5 per cent by lunchtime.Chinese exports increased at an annual rate of 9.9% in September, well ahead of the prior month's 2.7% rise and better than the consensus estimate of a 5.5% gain. Imports, up 2.4% year-on-year, were in line with expectations. Meanwhile, market analyst Craig Erlam from Alpari said that this could be a "game-changing week" for the Eurozone ahead of the EU Summit on Thursday.

Spain have resisted asking for aid until now, potentially allowing them time to take the initiative with the cuts to avoid the humiliation Greece have had to endure."FTSE 100: Hargreaves continues to riseFinancial services provider Hargreaves Lansdown continues to make gains following Friday's interim results, in which it reported record levels of revenue, assets under administration and client numbers in the second quarter.
